I heard somewere along the lines that a bloke in Europe had bought a property which had an extremely large garage that was welded up. Once he bought it the garage was opened to a vast amount of classic vintage cars that had been in storage for numerous years. Just wanted to see if any one has seen a link to this as after searching am still to find one.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

I haven't heard of this case, but it is happening more and more. A guy in the US died and he had 17-40ft containers with cars and lots of brand new parts that he had collected over the years. He would fill a container, lock it and start filling another.
Finding an old treasure of a car in someones barn is becoming pretty scarce, but there are so many car collectors, the stories of some of their collecting habits are pretty interesting.

Actually that was in Spain. A huge find of cars! It looked like the bloke who put the cars there was a repair shop and those cars were the ones he could not fix. Did like the white Porsche 356 looked like a 1964 or 1965 model. I no longer have the link, But I think it was called BARNFINDS.COM
